Season 1 had more beautiful girls in it (shannon, Elyse, Kesse) In season 2 they picked average looking girls and made them look beuatiful (shandi, Yoanna, Catie) but the fashion shoots were mostly swimsuits and body image shoots, the shoots this season are all high fashion and beauty shoots. Season 1 had more likeable charachters too like ADRIANNE!!! season 2 only really has (oops had) Sara and Jenasica. Theirs way too much Tyra in this season too. And last year i liked the final 5 contestants in the compeptition, this yr all my favorites got kicked (Sara) so i would say they are about equal, they have their good parts and bad parts

last season was black and white, literally.
this year, the girls are so much more diverse.
but last season was better because they showed a lot more of what the judges thought and adrianne and elyse were hilarous.
